[QUOTE="COLT 45, post: 1849376, member: 10227"] Warning! Religious material contained in this post. If it offends you just don't read it. Simple as that. 2 Thess.2:9-12,15 New Living Translation 9 This man will come to do the work of Satan with counterfeit power and signs and miracles. 10 He will use every kind of evil deception to fool those on their way to destruction, because they refuse to love and accept the truth that would save them. 11 So God will cause them to be greatly deceived, and they will believe these lies. 12 Then they will be condemned for enjoying evil rather than believing the truth. 15 With all these things in mind, dear brothers and sisters, stand firm and keep a strong grip on the teaching we passed on to you both in person and by letter. Make no mistake about it – we are presently living in the time described by the Apostle Paul in his letter to the Thessalonians. Unfortunately, there are many people today in the United States that have been deluded into believing a lie. A lie that evil is good and good is evil. That aborting babies is a justifiable “right.” That homosexuality is “normal.” That euthanasia is commendable. That freedom of speech has its limits. That freedom of religion needs to be limited. That the “undesirables” among us should be eliminated for the common good. That there is no God and we all just showed up out of a glob of matter. That we can “save” ourselves and the planet if we only do certain things. The lie that democracy can co-exist with Islam. That we must never offend anyone but accommodate everyone. That multiculturalism is good for America. That spending astronomical sums of money is the answer to economic stability. The lie that Obama loves America. The lie that he has “no agenda.” That he is not a Marxist. That he is not a Muslim sympathizer. That he is a Christian. Many more lies could be added to the list but Paul also points out that in addition to many being deluded (deceived) into believing many lies – there are those who actively support and enjoy evil rather than the truth. George Orwell said that, “In times of universal deceit – telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act.” We are in such times of universal deceit.
